Baaz Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 (edited) Would love to see a type of "Hazard Zone" with a PK%. Example: Anti-Personnel, Anti-Tank, and/or Anti-Ship zone. This would allow the creation of minefields without having to place dozens, if not hundreds, of unique objects. By distinguishing between the zone types one can restrict movement by said type(s). Bonus if you also create new units such as Engineers and Minesweepers to counter. Countering doesn't have to be anything fancy. If an engineer or minesweeper enters zone, reduce PK% by "X" amount. Edit: A further bonus would be if engineers/ships can create these zones on the fly. Example, a TACCOM orders an engineer to deploy mines, and a hazard zone of 25-50' (thinking the width of a roadway) is created and marked on map for friendly forces.

schurem Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 (edited) Did this already come up? : More granular control over ground unit accuracy. It's fine that a BMP can shoot something on the ground at 2km, but vs air targets it should spray & pray at the most. Dangerously accurate fire should (IMO) be the province of specialised units, like the ZSU.

Gunnar81 Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 I'm sure this has already been added somewhere down the line, but the ability to get a lasing unit to lase a target without the use of scripts or the JTAC commands. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chromium Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 Drawing tools visible by coalition in F10 maps, ability to group drawn shapes and to make them work as a trigger zone. 2 Author of DSMC, mod to enable scenario persistency and save updated miz file Stable version & site: https://dsmcfordcs.wordpress.com/ Openbeta: https://github.com/Chromium18/DSMC The thing is, helicopters are different from planes. An airplane by it's nature wants to fly, and if not interfered with too strongly by unusual events or by a deliberately incompetent pilot, it will fly. A helicopter does not want to fly. It is maintained in the air by a variety of forces in opposition to each other, and if there is any disturbance in this delicate balance the helicopter stops flying; immediately and disastrously.

ssgt_mac_0321 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 It would be pretty cool to have the ability to place small arms fire zones on the ground in which if you fly low enough through it, you'll take some sporadic fire/tracers from within that zone. This would simulate the wide dispersion of an alert infantry unit across a large area such as a defended treeline or occupied village. It would be much easier than having to place multiple infantry units in ME just to simulate this effect. Simply 7.62 ball/tracer would work, or even just an animation to simulate the effect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are armed buildings with which you can liberally place in and around a village to simulate an occupied town. As for just random fire from a "tree line" or any other location... personally I don't like the idea of being shot at without being able to visually see a target to return fire on.

Morpheus Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 I have not read all proposition and may be already written but it would be nice to have possibility to create model with static objects by selection on map and copy paste where I want. Example: I made for any virtual airshows a scenery and when virtual airshow organizers change air force base I have to re-build scenery every time, this possibility is also nice when you build scenery with other objects like buildings, defensive walls ...... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abburo Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 ED was used to define the merge of two distinct maps as "map clipping". Even they had this on their table some years ago, it was then forgotten for some reasons. We do already have Normandy and Channel maps which are somehow ready to be clipped.... but for some reasons (never exposed) this seems to not happen. Also Syria and PG require just one single new map between them... It would be really awesome but we were never told why "map clipping" is not any more a "thing". 1 Romanian Community for DCS World HW Specs: AMD 7900X, 64GB RAM, RTX 4090, HOTAS Virpil, MFG, CLS-E, custom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC they don't want to mix third-party maps with their own. This is also one of the main reasons why ED created The Channel - to have their own WWII map. 1 Dima | My DCS uploads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abburo Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 @Minsky It should not be "ME" and "THEY". DCS is a core platform offering core functions everyone have to adhere to (and improve in time). I think it would be mutual benefit for maps as there is for rest of modules. I think though, it might be related to general performance of existing hardware we are running. For example, clouds and grass were missing for quite long time in the game, simply because it was too much computation required. Might be similar for map-clipping for now... but I would really appreciate a short statement on this matter from ED. Is not a critical feature, but i am sure that will open some new doors for content creators... and new content (maps/missions/assets/modules) is what they are focusing for revenue and keep their business working. 2 Romanian Community for DCS World HW Specs: AMD 7900X, 64GB RAM, RTX 4090, HOTAS Virpil, MFG, CLS-E, custom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
